Timeline not changing frequently? (self.main)

Not sure if this is isolated to me, but when sorting by Active, my Subscribed, Local and All feeds pretty much don't change for multiple days. I have to sort by New, Hot, etc. to get new content, but even those feeds stay somewhat constant.

Is this a problem with how the Lemmy feed algorithms work? Or is it a queueing issue, like how Mastodon refreshes timelines?

I think there's definitely some algorithm changes needed. I've noticed some weirdness with kbin's hot algorithm. In comments, it often puts comments with no votes or just one vote near the top, which doesn't make sense.

I also notice the front page hot algorithm has a duration option, but it doesn't seem to change anything.

And the top sorting looks like it might be local only?
